The purpose of this study is to exploratorily evaluate the effects of 4-week continuous intake of "Tenku Kuwa Aojiru" (Mulberry Green Juice) on biomarkers related to metabolic syndrome and diabetes (specifically postprandial blood glucose), as well as body weight and body fat percentage. Focusing on the effect of iminosugars, a component unique to mulberry leaves, to moderate sugar absorption, this pilot study verifies its usefulness in healthy individuals and those in the borderline range.
Safety,Efficacy
Change in postprandial blood glucose levels (comparison between pre-intake and 4 weeks post-intake)
Changes in body weight, body fat percentage, and BMI (comparison between pre-intake and 4 weeks post-intake)
Changes in blood biochemical parameters (HbA1c, Triglyceride, Total cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, Uric acid, Total protein, Albumin, AST, ALT, gamma-GT, BUN, Creatinine)
Changes in subjective physical conditions via questionnaire (stomach condition, skin condition, quality of awakening, other subjective symptoms)
Evaluation of product palatability and acceptability (ease of drinking, taste, intention to continue drinking)
